"I reckon he’s one that could do well in coaching and management." He doesn't strike me as someone who will go down that road, but who knows? [Post edited 7 Feb 2023 20:07]

For Swansea this can be nothing more than a good decision. For Wales maybe a day to celebrate his success. A Swansea City player who played at the World Cup 👠| ![](/images/avatars/27565.gif) |

| Swansea Indepenent Poster Of The Year 2021. Dr P / Mart66 / Roathie / Parlay / E20/ Duffle was 2nd, but he is deluded and thinks in his little twisted brain that he won. Poor sod. We let him win this year, as he has cried for a whole year. His 14 usernames, bless his cotton socks.

Joe Allen retires on 23:29 - Feb 7 with 2335 views | swancity | He was awful at the World Cup like so many of his team mates and taking his lack of match fitness into consideration he knows he’s finished at that level. As did Bale. If he can keep fit he may well go into next season but there’s no guarantee. He’s looked one paced and sluggish at times. A pale shadow of the energetic dynamo that he once was. | ![](/images/avatars/0.gif) |

He does still have something to offer. Frankly I'm finding the attempts to paint him as one step from the glue factory as bizarre given some of his performances for us this season. Another good year or two in him I reckon. As for management, even since he was a youngling he's always come across as intelligent level headed and thoughtful in interviews and punditry so if he does have his badges then he could well go down that road. | ![](/images/avatars/8802.gif) |
